In Profields, I have defined a three level cascading drop down list boxes for our objectives:
Level 1: the objectives set (because we get a new set of objectives every two to three years)
Level 2: the high level objectives (a grouping of the detailed objectives by topic)
Level 3: the detailed objectives
I have also defined a field to hold the project status.
All three of the list boxes is defined with an Option Id and an Option Text.
I have then imported all the data in to eazyBI. However I was not able to import Level 2 or Level 3 of my objectives as dimensions as the Option Text was too long (more than 255 characters) on some items.
The report I wish to get out of eazyBI is very simple: I would like to have a list of the values from Level 1 then Level 2 and finally Level 3, followed by all the projects for that objective with the project status. However, I can get it to work: the report comes back with the value of none for the objectives and a list of projects.
If I start off with the projects as the rows, then I can see the objectives assigned to that project but that is not what I want.
Am I doing this right? Is there a better way to get what I want?
Something I thought about was maybe making the Option Text much shorted for the fields Level 2 and Level 3 so I could import them as dimensions. Would that make any difference?
Hi,
It is assumed that the names of the dimension members should not be too long in eazyBI.
There was an issue with the length of the Profields custom fields in earlier versions but should be resolved now. Please, apply for support once the problem is still there.
Kindly,
Janis, eazyBI support
